CR's are a valid tactic.
Are Extinction Classy? Are The Dead Classy? Do THEY play by the rules? Do THEY care about what tactics they use?
Im not trying to be an ass here, but it is a valid survivor tactic that has drawbacks.
Just as Kevan allows PK'ers, he allows revives of ANYONE. This is the way the game is supposed to be.

oic...
And of course, our opponents are classy. I treat them with as much respect as I desire to be treated with, and the least classy they've been was killing me mid-speech. At any rate, it's your prerogative.

Well, as I see it, some groups, like the RRF are always fun to fight against. They crash trough the barricades after a few days of siege, rambling on about bananz, harman azz and so on. We shoot them as fast as they can, they eat us as fast as they can.
We move to a new place and fight after a while, or we jump between buildings trying to keep up with their attacks.
That doesn't really work with the Dead though. Too high numbers really. And they're not nearly as fun to fight as the RRF. Hence, we fight dirty.
That's how I see it at least.
I don't really do any CR now anyway, since things seems to be more or less like before.
In fact, we're having an unusual amount of green on the suburb map...

Combat Reviving is fun. Have you ever CRed a rotter? It's one of the funnest things I've ever done, just because of the sheer incredulous look they probably have when they get back.

Rockby, you fool... Who gives a left-handed damn about efficiency... It's a goddamn browser based MMORPG. This is about fun, and it's no fun for zombies if you combat revive. It's just not classy. Yeah, I'm not sure I buy that... it's like saying "It's no fun for survivors if you PK"... actually, it's even less valid than that...anyone can be PKed, in any place, at any time, If you don't want to be combat revived, you can buy brain rot, and not besiege powered necrotech buildings If you WANT to attack powered Necrotech buildings, this is a risk you assume, kind of like if you want to run around reviving zombies without a DNA extractor, you run the risk of wasting one on a rotter. |

Combat reviving is a lousy tactic, but it's an accepted one.
I was under the impression it was against the NMC's policies though, seeing as how the Black Ops room was created just to keep regular members knowing and protesting our use of them against specific members of the RRF.
I gotta say, CRing Sonny with a mark I was pretty funny at the time though.

I think the NMC's official position is still against it, and personally, there's not a lot of times when using it is particularly useful...
but I've done the math, there are valid uses for this nifty combat trick, and passing them up just to get mowed down doesn't make a whole lot of sense...
obviously, the point of the game isn't to "Win" (which can't be done), but saying "You can't combat revive because it inconveniences us" is like saying "You can't sleep in ruined buildings because it adds another step to our already hectic day"

Well, I'm still with Albub on this one.
Ron's been gone like 5 minutes, and this place has already become decidedly unclassy-er...

Roll out the Cigars, scotch, canes, top hats, monocles, suits and hair products?

Yeah, it's a zombie apocalypse after all. Things will go downhill a bit, but we can at least look classy!

Those tophats clash somewhat with my hair products, but I think the cigars make up for that.

On the subject of combat revives, I can't stop anyone else from doing it, but I do think it is kinda below the belt. I'd rather just go raise some survivors from the dead. My gun and my axe have carried me well so far thank you kindly.
In other news, how goes the battle in Yagoton? Depending on you this seige of the kilt store goes we might be coming up soon, (or never).

I just can't believe that we've held them off so far. After months of watching them roll over suburbs, we're finally giving them actual resistance  |
